I'm very depressed. I've just been going through a lot and I feel like nobody can help me. I do have an appointment with a new therapist in 2 weeks but it feels like that's a very long wait. I'm trying to distract myself and make it through but it's hard. I could really just use a hug.

Do everything that is in your power to distract yourself, @88Butterfly88! Two weeks is long, but it isn't impossible. Just try your best, I hope you'll feel better REALLY soon! Keep it up! You are the best! I am here if you want to talk. I am sure many others are available as well! Keep fighting! Sending many safe, warm hugs to BOTH you, @88Butterfly88, your Family, your Friends, your Therapist and ALL of your Loved Ones! Keep fighting and keep rocking NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS, OK, MY DEAR, SWEET, KIND, AWESOME AND WONDERFUL FRIEND?!

I can relate. I’m also going through a transition and it’s rough. I’ll be seeing my therapist in 10 days.

This is just a thought, but what about writing it out? When something is bothering me, it helps me to get the thoughts out of my head and on paper in front of me.

I used to write things out longhand, but that is too painful now. So, I type everything out, just free hand typing, not worrying about my spelling or my grammar. I just type what crosses my mind.

Then, if I need to, I have a good cry and that helps me feel better.

I wish I could help you out better; you're in my prayers, babes. xoxox
